research project
We invite you to consider referring a couple you feel might be interested in participating in a new study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of TCT, with the goal of publishing the results in a peer reviewed journal. The total length of treatment in the study is sixteen 75-minute online weekly sessions held on HIPAA compliant Zoom, with questionnaires at various points during and following the therapeutic process.
This is the most popular ‘set of three’ training videos. A bi-racial couple work through issues of flirtation and resultant anxiety, jealousy and conflict that brought them to the edge of breakup.

In the United States about 42% of families are step-families. In these two videos, we see how a relational rupture in a step-family resulting from clashing cultural norms and unresolved trauma transforms into a state of lasting repair.
In these lively sessions you will learn about the Transformative Couples Therapy® model both from a left-brain perspective and from witnessing a powerful clinical example via these breakthrough sessions. The context aligns with Allan Schore’s surprising research on the differences between the male brain vs. the female brain. This is combined with Helen Fisher’s fMRI research on the brain’s remarkable way of expressing the state of being “in-love”.
This in-love state is successfully cued up and intensified resulting in a surprising new outcome for this endearing and complex couple and for their step-family.
